Item 5.     Other Events.

      For the 1999 third  quarter,  the Company  reported a 61%  increase in net
sales to $35.5 million,  as compared to $22.0 million in the 1998 third quarter.
The  Company's  strong  performance  was  driven  primarily  by record  sales of
integrated circuits for both wireless and broadband communications applications.
On a year over year basis, wireless sales increased 88%, cable sales improved by
60% and fiber sales were up 39%.

      The  Company  recorded  net income of $2.7  million,  or $0.16 per diluted
share.  Excluding a reversal of $441,000  of  previously  accrued  restructuring
charges related to the Fab 1/Fab 2 transition,  EPS was $0.15 per diluted share.
This reversal  reflects  stronger than  expected  demand for our products.  This
quarter's net income compares very favorably with the break-even  results in the
third quarter of 1998.

      Excluding  special  charges,  gross  margin  for the  1999  third  quarter
improved to 46.8% from 45.7% in the second quarter of 1999 and 31.2% in the 1998
third  quarter.  The higher  margin is a result of  leveraging  fixed costs in a
period of robust sales.

      Research and  development  expenses  for the 1999 third  quarter were $8.3
million, a 91% increase from $4.3 million in the third quarter of 1998 and a 30%
increase from $6.4 million in the second quarter of 1999. The Company  announced
in the third  quarter of 1999 its  intention to  accelerate  process  technology
investments,  particularly HBT technology for Wireless Power Amplifiers,  and 10
Gbps Fiber applications.  Selling and administrative  expenses were $5.1 million
for the third quarter,  as compared to $3.1 million in the year-ago  quarter and
$4.9 million in the second quarter of 1999.

      For the nine months  ended  October 3, 1999,  net sales  increased  43% to
$91.0 million,  as compared to $63.5 million for the 1998 nine-month period. The
Company reported net income,  before special  charges,  of $5.2 million or $0.31
per diluted share for the nine-month  period.  Including  special  charges,  the
Company reported a net loss for the nine-month period of $1.8 million,  or $0.12
per diluted  share.  Before  special  charges,  the Company  reported break even
results for the 1998 nine-month period.  Including special charges,  the Company
reported a net loss of $5.7 million, or $0.39 per diluted share for 1998.

      Except for historical  information contained herein, this Form 8K contains
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties,  including, but
not limited to, order rescheduling or cancellation, changes in estimated product
lives,  timely  product  and process  development,  individual  product  pricing
pressure,  variation in production yield,  difficulties in obtaining  components
and assembly  services needed for production of integrated  circuits,  change in
economic  conditions of the various markets the Company and its customers serve,
as well as other risks detailed from time to time in the Company's reports filed
with the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  including the report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1998 and the Registration  Statement on Form S-3
